Electrical Inspection & Testing in Shawlands

Local electrical inspection & testing for homes and businesses in Shawlands, Glasgow — from sandstone tenements along Kilmarnock Road and Pollokshaws Road, the Southside's main commercial hub. NICEIC registered, fully insured, and quoted clearly before we start.

Electrical Inspection & Testing for tenement flats and traditional Southside properties

An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a legal requirement for rental properties and good practice for every home or business. We test the full installation and give you a clear, honest report — not a sales pitch.

Most of our work in Shawlands is on sandstone tenements along Kilmarnock Road and Pollokshaws Road, the Southside's main commercial hub. Tenement flats often mean shared stairwells, older meter rooms, and sometimes a shared supply to consider — we plan around all of that before we start, not after.

  • EICR for landlords and homeowners
  • Clear pass/fail reporting, no jargon
  • Fast turnaround for lets and sales
  • Remedial work quoted on the spot

Compliance & Regulations

Landlords letting residential property in Scotland have a legal duty to hold a satisfactory Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR), generally renewed at least every five years. We'll tell you plainly where your property currently stands against that requirement.

Getting to Shawlands From Our Southside Base

It's one of the closest areas to our base — just a few minutes from Shawlands via Pollokshaws Road to our Southside base on Inverlair Drive (G43) — well within our usual call-out range, so a visit to Shawlands is a normal part of the working week for us, not a special trip.
